(a)

20x² – 35x – 32x + 56 = 0

or 5x (4x – 7) – 8 (4x – 7) = 0

or (5x – 8) (4x – 7) = 0

x =8/5,7/4

56y² – 32y – 35y + 20 = 0

or 8y (7y – 4) – 5 (7y – 4) = 0

or (8y – 5) (7y – 4) = 0

∴x=5/8,4/7

x > y

(c)

2x² + 16x – 5x – 40 = 0

or 2x (x + 8) – 5 (x + 8) = 0

or (2x – 5) (x + 8) = 0

∴x=5/2,-8

II. 4y² – 16y – 11y + 44 = 0

or 4y (y – 4) – 11 (y – 4) = 0

or (4y – 11) (y – 4) = 0

y = 4, 11/4

∴x<y

4) I. 7x = 4y + 85

II) y = ∛17576

(a) if x > y

(b) if x ≥ y

(d) if x ≤ y

(e) if x = y or no relationship can be established.

(a)

7x= 4y + 85

or 7x = 4 × 26 + 85 (Put y = 26)

∴x= 189/7 = 27

II. y = ∛17576

y = 26

x > y

5) I. x² = 14641

II) y = √14641

(a) if x > y

(b) if x ≥ y

(d) if x ≤ y

(e) if x = y or no relationship can be established.

x² = 14641

x = ±121

II. y = √14641

y = 121

D.6-10): In each of these questions, two equations (I) and (II) are given. You have to solve both the equations and give answer

(a) if x > y

(b) if x ≥ y

(d) if x ≤ y

(e) if x = y or if there is no relation between ‘x’ and ‘y’.

6) I. x² + 42 = 13x

II) y=∜1296

(a) if x > y

(b) if x ≥ y

(d) if x ≤ y

(e) if x = y or no relationship can be established.

(b)

x² + 42 = 13x

or x² – 13x + 42 = 0

or x² – 7x – 6x + 42 = 0

or x(x – 7) – 6(x – 7) = 0

or (x – 6) (x – 7) = 0

x = 6, 7
